Welcome: If you're unsure about how to get started, please log in and ask in a new thread in the Introduce Yourself section. If it exists, you should also introduce yourself in your Language Team section below.

All Coordinators and Language Team 'veterans' should add the global Intro board to their Favorites.

[Dec 15th 2018, 9:14pm]Ray: The SEO experiment did not go anywhere near as well as I would have liked. For some reason, the rewrite rules were getting the various boards confused, redirecting all 'Current Projects' boards to the one for the Czech Team, for example. So, those changes have now been reversed, and I'll come back to this situation at a later time.

[Dec 4th 2018, 1:17am]Ray: Please be aware that to help increase the LTI Forum's SEO (search engine optimization), I am making some small adjustments to how the forum links to various things like categories, sections, and paginated pages. The result of which will change, for example, the url "/language-team-playgrounds/english-department/board5-active-projects/index2.html" to "/language-team-playgrounds/english-department/active-projects/index2.html". So if you have certain areas of the forum bookmarked for easy access, or if you have linked to the forum in some external resources (Facebook, etc.), please update those bookmarks to reflect these changes. Much Love and Huge Hugs to all!

[Dec 1st 2018, 9:52pm]Ray: Head's up! I've just received word that we will very likely host a new Translate-a-thon sometime around February, 2019 for an upcoming TVP video

[Sep 17th 2018, 12:58pm]Ray: Unfortunately, "Psywar" by Metanoia Films now includes a copyright claim in YouTube that causes it to be blocked in all countries. Scott Noble, its creator, has migrated it to Vimeo which does not support subtitles, so we are removing it from LTI's care

[Sep 8th 2018, 1:00am]Ray: A significant correction was just applied to the video "Jacque Fresco - Building Cities - Future by Design extras" at the 03:29.382 mark ('architect' must be adjusted to the translation for 'occupant'). Albanian, Arabic, French, German, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), and Spanish (Spain) need to adjust it within their translations, as well, as this mistake will certainly give a very wrong impression of how people will control their own lives in the future. A big Thank You to Esai for catching it!

[Aug 4th 2018, 10:41pm]Mr_Z: To Translators: the-venus-project-introducing-the-center-for-resource-management is now open for translation.

[Jul 18th 2018, 6:49am]Ray: Ah, thanks so much for the feedback, Eric!

[Jul 17th 2018, 6:36am]kton36369: Everything seems to be working well on pootle, Thanks for the effort, Ray

[Jul 15th 2018, 9:18am]Ray: Bah, rest is for mortals! The more I recognize all of the massive benefits that we are striving to help bring about for humanity, the more my sense of overall urgency just keeps increasing.

Linguistic Team International (LTI) is an open, fully collaborative international group of volunteers focusing on transcribing, proofreading & translating public awareness videos and other materials pertaining to the establishment of a global Resource-Based Economy. If you're joining the Linguistic Team's efforts, first check to see if there is an existing Language Team representing your native language, where you can introduce yourself more directly. If not, please create a new thread here to introduce yourself and let us know what Language Team you would like to help. If you want to contribute on a more global level (support across all languages), include any special skills or interests you have and wish to contribute (programming experience, multimedia, graphic arts, extensive proofreading experience, etc.)

All items completed by the English Department are moved to this section, which alerts all translation teams that this is their time to shine! When ready, a team coordination member should create a new thread in their team's "Current Projects" section and then Copy the contents of the first post into that. All language team members should Favorite their own language team's "Current Projects" board so they can see when these posts are added.

Please do not Move any of the threads found within here to your team's section or you will be removing the ability of other teams to make use of them.

All members handling 'new item announcements' for their teams should add all of the sub-boards below to their Favorites.

Our global support groups focused on the needs of all teams.
If you'd like to add some variety to your LTI efforts, all of the groups are seeking part-time help. Contact the group's coordinator for details. ;)
